Your basement stays dry during nor’easters. Water flows away from your foundation instead of pooling against it. You stop worrying every time heavy rain hits the forecast.
That’s what functioning gutters do. And when yours aren’t working—when they’re sagging, leaking at the seams, or overflowing during storms—every day you wait increases the risk. Foundation damage averages over $10,000 to repair. Basement flooding and water intrusion can easily hit $8,000. Fascia rot runs anywhere from $500 to $4,000 depending on how far the damage spreads.
Most gutter problems don’t require full replacement. A loose hanger gets reattached. A separated joint gets sealed with professional-grade sealant that won’t crack when temperatures drop. Small holes get patched. Pitch gets corrected so water flows toward downspouts instead of sitting in sections of your gutter.
We handle residential gutter repair across Brookhaven and Suffolk County with the same approach we bring to every job: show up with the right materials, assess what actually needs fixing, and complete most repairs the same day. You’re not paying for what you don’t need, and you’re not waiting weeks for someone to show up.
We’ve spent over 10 years working on Long Island homes, and we’ve seen what coastal weather does to gutters. Salt air corrodes metal. Heavy snow loads stress hangers. Ice dams form during wet winters when snow melts and refreezes, blocking drainage and adding dangerous weight.
We’re a fully licensed and insured Suffolk County contractor, family-owned and operated. We don’t just handle gutters—we install roofs, repair chimneys, replace siding, and fix the systems that protect your home’s exterior. That means one call handles multiple problems, and you’re working with someone who understands how all these systems work together.
Brookhaven sits right in the path of hurricane season. After Irene in 2011 and Sandy in 2012, homeowners here know what storm damage looks like. Your gutters are your first line of defense against water intrusion, and when they fail during a storm, the damage spreads fast.
First, we assess what’s actually wrong. That means checking for loose or damaged hangers, inspecting seams and joints for separation, looking at pitch to see if water’s draining properly, and identifying any holes, cracks, or sections that have pulled away from the fascia.
Then we give you an honest recommendation. If repair will handle it, that’s what we recommend. If your gutters are over 15 years old, rusted through in multiple spots, or you’re calling for the third repair this year, we’ll tell you replacement makes more sense. We’re not interested in selling you something you don’t need, but we’re also not going to patch a system that’s going to fail again in six months.
Most gutter repair jobs get completed the same day. We bring professional-grade sealants that hold up in freeze-thaw cycles, aluminum materials engineered to resist coastal corrosion, and the hangers and hardware that actually last. Loose sections get reattached. Leaking joints get sealed. Pitch gets corrected. Downspouts get cleared and repositioned if needed.
You’ll know the cost before we start, and you’ll know what we’re fixing and why. No surprises, no upselling, no waiting around for weeks while your gutters keep dumping water against your foundation.

We handle the full range of residential gutter repair: reattaching loose or sagging sections, sealing separated joints and seams, patching small holes and cracks, correcting pitch problems that cause standing water, replacing damaged hangers and brackets, clearing and repairing downspouts, and addressing ice dam damage from Long Island winters.
For Brookhaven homes specifically, we pay attention to coastal conditions. Aluminum gutters hold up better here than steel or vinyl because salt air eats through other materials faster. We use sealants rated for temperature swings and moisture exposure. And we make sure your system is ready for the heavy rains and nor’easters that hit Suffolk County every year.
Most gutter repairs in Brookhaven cost between $150 and $500. Simple jobs—resealing a joint, patching a small hole, reattaching a loose section—typically run $150 to $250. More complex repairs that involve multiple sections, pitch correction, or fascia work usually cost $300 to $500. If you’re looking at costs above that range, it’s worth having a conversation about whether replacement makes more sense long-term.
The alternative to fixing your gutters is dealing with the damage they cause. Foundation repairs exceed $10,000. Basement waterproofing averages $8,000. Even fascia replacement can hit $4,000 if rot spreads. A $200 gutter repair today prevents a $10,000 problem next year.
If you’re dealing with one or two isolated problems—a loose section, a leaking seam, a small hole—repair usually makes sense. These are straightforward fixes that extend the life of your system without the cost of full replacement.
Replacement becomes the better option when you’re facing multiple issues across different sections, rust or corrosion that’s spread through the metal, frequent repairs over the past year or two, or gutters that are over 15 years old and showing their age. At that point, you’re spending more on repeated repairs than a new system would cost, and you’re still dealing with an aging system that’s going to keep failing.
We’ll assess your gutters and give you an honest recommendation either way. If repair will get you another 5-10 years, that’s what we’ll tell you. If you’re throwing money at a system that’s going to need replacement soon anyway, we’ll tell you that too.
The most common cause is failed hangers or brackets. Over time, the fasteners that hold your gutters to the fascia work loose—especially if they were installed into just the fascia board instead of into the rafter tails behind it. Add weight from standing water, ice, or debris, and those loose hangers give way completely.
Fascia rot is another major cause. If water’s been getting behind your gutters and soaking the fascia board, the wood eventually rots and can’t hold the fasteners anymore. When that happens, you’re looking at fascia repair or replacement along with reattaching the gutters properly.
We check both the hangers and the fascia condition during every repair. If the fascia is rotted, we’ll let you know before we reattach anything—because screwing gutters back into rotten wood doesn’t solve the problem. We handle both the gutter repair and any necessary fascia work so the fix actually lasts.
Yes, we can handle most gutter repairs year-round as long as temperatures are above freezing and conditions are safe to work. The challenge in winter isn’t usually the repair itself—it’s ice buildup and snow that need to be cleared first.
If you’re dealing with ice dams, we address those carefully. Ice dams form when snow melts, runs down to the colder edge of your roof, and refreezes in the gutter. That ice blocks drainage, adds weight, and can pull gutters loose or cause water to back up under your shingles. Removing ice dams requires care to avoid damaging the gutters or roof, and sometimes the underlying problem is insulation or ventilation in your attic that’s causing uneven roof temperatures.
Winter gutter problems shouldn’t wait until spring. If your gutters are overflowing, pulling away, or causing ice dams, that’s active damage happening to your home. The sooner we fix it, the less damage you’re dealing with when everything thaws.
Most gutter repairs get completed in a few hours, and we finish the majority of jobs the same day we start. Simple repairs—resealing a joint, patching a hole, reattaching a loose section—might take an hour or two depending on access and how many spots need attention.
More involved repairs take longer. If we’re correcting pitch across a long run of gutter, replacing multiple hangers, or addressing fascia damage before reattaching gutters, you’re looking at half a day or a full day depending on the scope.
We’ll give you a time estimate when we assess the job. What matters more than speed is doing it right—using proper sealants, installing hangers into solid wood, making sure pitch is correct so water drains instead of pooling. A repair that’s done fast but fails in six months doesn’t help you.
Yes, and older homes often need more attention to the fascia and soffit condition before we reattach or repair gutters. Over 70% of American homes are more than 30 years old, and that age shows up in gutter systems—especially if maintenance has been deferred.
Older homes in Brookhaven sometimes have original gutters that have been patched multiple times, mismatched sections from previous repairs, or systems that were never properly sized for the roof area they’re draining. We assess the full system, not just the immediate problem, because fixing one leak doesn’t help if the gutters are undersized and overflowing during heavy rain.
We’ve worked on homes across Suffolk County for over a decade, including plenty of older properties. We know what to look for, how to work with older construction, and when repair makes sense versus when you’re better off with a new system. You’ll get a straight answer either way.
Small leaks don’t stay small. Water finds its way into every gap, crack, and seam it can reach. A leaking joint drips water against your fascia, which leads to rot. That rotted fascia can’t hold the gutter, so it pulls away. Now water’s pouring behind the gutter and running down your siding or into your foundation.
Foundation damage from poor drainage averages over $10,000 to repair. Basement flooding and moisture problems add another $8,000 on average. Fascia replacement runs $500 to $4,000 depending on how far the rot spreads. All of that starts with a leak you could have sealed for $150.
The other issue is that gutter problems get worse during storms—exactly when you need your gutters working. A small leak becomes a failure point during heavy rain. A loose section pulls completely away when it’s loaded with water. Ignoring the problem doesn’t make it go away. It just makes the eventual repair more expensive.
